Calibration Calibrate the altimeter by entering information or letting the Colorado determine the elevation and pressure. The Colorado relies on barometric pressure to determine elevation, and the pressure at any given elevation can fluctuate. You must know the elevation (from a map point or other reliable data) or the pressure (calibrated to sea level) for your current location. To calibrate the altimeter select Shortcuts > Setup > Calibration > Altimeter. 1. If you know the elevation, select Yes and enter the information. Select No if you do not know the elevation. 2. If you know the pressure select Yes. Select No if you do not know the pressure. 3. A "Calibration Completed" or "Calibration Failed" message appears after calibration is completed.
